Wheel Carrier Spacer?
Hi ALl,
Not sure if this topic has been covered. I'm just about to fit some 285s and I've heard that unless your wheel has a decent offset, the rear wiper will need to be removed to fit the spare on the back door. Does anyone know how to solve this or if there is a spacer kit I can get? Thanks.

I put 285s on boosts and they fouled my wiper. Swing away carrier sorted it out though!

From an old thread......

Offset can often be adjusted by the adjustment spacer fitted to the original carrier studs to move it away from your wiper arm if required.
